Congratulations Abby!

Stoked to have this perspective about my favorite organelle out in JCS! Give it a read, then let's argue!

And we have another open position, this time with a focus on Genome Biology! Join a great community in Vienna to bring your research to the next level!

So excited that our paper is now out with @jcellsci.bsky.social and a special thank you to the editors for featuring our work! Check out below! 🐸🔬
